[Wii] Cooking Mama Responds to PETA By Highlighting Vegetarian Offerings In their Latest Game Release

Posted by Jacob Lopez on 11.19.2008

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals seem to freak over Mama's fine cooking.

Total animal liberation is making its way to polygonal animals as well. Majesco is the second publisher within a month to respond to the extremists' group's concerns. They seem to have had fun doing it too.

Note: No animals were harmed (or even used for that matter) in Cooking Mama: World Kitchen which was released this week.


Press Release:
Food lover and culinary cutie Cooking Mama is a virtual chef who believes that good home cooked food, properly prepared from the best ingredients, can bring people together around the table and make the world a happier place. That's why Mama is taking a stand with oven mitts raised high against the latest PETA objection targeting her freshly released videogame, Cooking Mama World Kitchen, that shipped this week for Wii from Majesco Entertainment Company. Mama wants people to know that World Kitchen includes 51 recipes from around the world, ranging from vegetarian fare like miso soup and rice cakes to international delicacies like ginger pork and octopus dumplings.

"I would never put rat in my Ratatouille," said a feisty Mama while beating some eggs. "Like any accomplished cook, I create my recipes to appeal to a broad range of tastes and preferences. My only goal is to ensure you leave the table well fed."

Cooking Mama World Kitchen includes more than 25 vegetarian-friendly recipes including delicious breakfast, dinner, dessert and snack options. And, while Mama is not a vegetarian, she fully supports the humane treatment of animals, particularly for her canine protege Max who makes his doggie debut in World Kitchen.
